How it works
Bookimed is an independent patient experience sharing platform. We are not responsible for objectivity of information in patient reviews — they represent the opinion of reviewers only.
A review is provided only by patients or their accompanying caregivers who have booked/visited the medical center via Bookimed.com, have been diagnosed/treated.
We publish both positive and negative reviews. Every review is moderated for compliance with Reviews&Comments Policy.
Bookimed partner hospitals cannot publish reviews on behalf of patients. We exclude any artificial rise/drop in the ranking.
My visit was not so perfect, they were not so professional as I wish. The doctor was good but we have large problems with communication and I feel how he felt uncomfortable about it but cannot do anything with it. That is why I denied to do the operation there and only have a consultation They do not know that I do not speak German but only English I want to say thank you to Lesya, her job was good.
Well.. I plan on coming back to the same hospital. Next time I’m pregnant. Dr. Reitter is the best. Pleasant staff Absolutely, very satisfied.. the patient of the team, from beginning of my enquires till my arrival I Frankfurt Germany. Making sure of my safe arrival and hotel bookings and check ins. They sorted out my accommodation in no time. Very impressive.
Nobody there seemed to know about my appt. There were no free translators. Luckily I found a very nice lady in surgery dept who called Mrs. Spiegel and i finally got to see the head of the gastro dept.He ordered a set of blood tests and scheduled a gastroscopy for the next day. The second day, I got the gastroscopy, and then I waited for like 3hrs for the doctor who performed my gastroscopy to tell me about the results. Apparently he was on duty and there was nobody else to discuss with me.In the end he showed up and said that the blood results were incomplete and we had to wait for the results of the biopsies that were prelevated during the endoscopy.He said it would be a few days, and they will send it by mail. That was last friday.No sign up to this day..So l would have to say that it was not very well organised and if it wasn’t for the good heart of the clerk working in surgery dept.i would not had been checked at all.
Actuality in my first step with the agency Bookimed, rhey were very good responding with my request and arranging the appointments but small lake of receiving medical documents that i send to the Professor in the hospital and i think the problem was from hospital side from a person. But the hospital was good and the professor himself was a very professional person and helpful and serious persom with understanding my both chldren status. And i hope that my visit was successful when my kids recovered after long treatment that will be i hope next few weeks.

Good hospital and wonderful staf
Excellent met, everything was done, the organization was very wealthy. Thank you very much! Отлично встретили, все сделали, организация была очень достояна. Спасибо большое!
The attention from the clinic staff was okay though the pocedure to be carried out on me was not properly explained and i was made to ask so many questions that should not be. Translayion from german to english was so difficult. I also thought bookimed had a representative at the hospital. If i had known there was no representative maybe i would not have expected all that i thought comes with bookimed services. Its okay that you have now explained all that. Maybe what bookimed should have done was to have properly guided me as to what should have been done on arrival at the hospital and further guided me through other necessary protocols as to what to expect and not to expect. It okay now, i will conclude all that should be on monday morning with the hospital and where there is need for question, i will ask them. Thank you
Doctors are professionals in their field. The only minus the bedding is very old. Врачи профессионалы своего дела. Единственный минус постельное белье очень старое.
Everything is just fine: a clinic, a doctor and a Russian-speaking employee of the department for work with foreigners. Всё просто отлично: клиника, доктора и русскоязычный работник отдела по работе с иностранцами.
Paid over 1000€ for an appointment Arrived for a 10.00 appointment - not taken for procedure until 13.30. No information on waiting time. Anaesthetic pumped into muscle instead of vein Actual procedure carried out quickly and efficiently but spoilt by the above comments.
